| Description | Full to mostly sun will produce the most flowers throughout the long flowering season (june to frost). We suggest 7 hours of direct sunlight per day for best performance.Lantana are not too picky about soil type. They prefer a well-drained loose to sandy soil of average fertility, however will tolerate infertile soils. As with so many other perennial plants, constantly soggy or wet soil can cause root rot and other harmful plant diseases. Lantana grows and flowers best in an acid to slightly acid soil ranging between 5.5 To 6.5 On the ph scale. Most average garden soils fall between a ph range of 6.0 To 7.0. So make sure to plant them in well-drained soil.Use a balanced fertilizer with a ratio such as 10-10-10 or 20-20-20.Fertilize containerized lantana regularly. Many quality fertilizers are available for potted plants and should be applied according to the recommendations on the label. |
